Recent Survey

I recently participated in a survey done by Newsmax.com. This is an on going survey and so far more than 275,000 people have participated. In this poll 93% of the people say that gas prices are affecting thier personal economy, 83% believe President Obama can do something more to help reduce the price of gasoline, 91% disagree with Obama's desire to raise taxes on gasoline, and 82% say if the election were held today they would vote for someone other than Mr. Obama.
 The demographics of this survey were not given but it seems to me that with so many responding this is a very powerful statement for conservatives. We must defeat Mr. Obama in the next election if we are to have any hope of recovering our status in the world. 
Gasoline is one of the issues that is cousing problems with our economy. Please let me know how you feel. Are yuou struggling? Are you one of the millions who are unemployed or under emmployed? Join in this discussion and maybe we can get enough people involved to make a difference in our future.

Honesty and Integrity

Politicians irritate me so much. there seems to be an over abundance of them who are simply in it for the prestige and power. Think about it, they get to wrangle our money for their pet projects and take all the glory for the "projects"  they do for the area they represent. Now I don't have a problem with them working for the home folk, my problem is the lack of integrity and honesty from most of them. Why is it so hard to walk a life that shows these traits? I don't remember who said this but, "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely." When men and women get a hold on  power they seem to have a tendency to be crazed, like rabid dogs. Men are more likely than women to be out of control, but it works in both sexes.

We need politicians and leaders who can control the urge to "lord it over the people". That is why we need term limits in both houses of congress. Just like the president, they should  be limited so that they can do what they are elected to do and then move on to other "things". Imagine a group of people serving with no personal agenda for long term employment, no more career politicians.

Maybe you agree or disagree, if so please feel free to comment.
